Default AC belt removal results...

So, I removed my AC belt about a week ago... It made a little difference in power... I didn't noticemy fuel economy until today. I looked down at my trip odometer and it said300 miles on it. My fuel gauge is always on the 1/4 tank mark by this time. I looked at my fuel gauge today, and it had a little less than 1/2 a tank!!! You all know how there are thelarge 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 and 4/4 marks, thenthere are the3 smallermarks between these marks? My fuel gauge is still on the small mark closest to the 1/2 tank markbetween the 1/4 and 1/2 mark. I really didn't expect the fuel economy to change THAT much... I'll keep you all posted...

I'm not going to lie... It's as hot as Ted Kennedy being locked in the trunk of a black Lincoln in South Central LA... But I work nights, so it's not too bad...

I couldn't imagine going without an AC in Shrev. I'm in New Orleans and I know Shrev. can't be that much better.

I live in the Florida panhandle and I'll just be danged if I'm going without my A/C! It stays between 90-100 degrees with enough humidity to drown in.
